a public service for those checking betas next pregnancy

in TTC After a Loss

For anyone who is getting betas early in their pregnancy, the new literature says that even 50% rise is normal.

Take me for example.

13 dpo = 121

15 dpo = 206  (70% rise)

17 dpo = 311  (51% rise)

19 dpo = 503 (62% rise)

27 dpo = 7406 (almost 100% rise every 48h over last week)

Long and short of it.....I was worried over nothing (hopefully).  We saw cardiac activity yesterday and today (yes I can't help myself - my coworkers are dear people), so I am much more relieved now than before.

Don't freak if your betas do not double perfectly like we think they should!!!! 

Good luck loves!

    This is part of the reason I'm torn over betas. I didn't do it last time, even though my doctor offered. I didn't need anything else to obsess over.

    Glad things are going well for you!

    I didnt do it last time because my Dr wouldn't. I am pretty sure next time we will. I know they dont always mean anything, but I will feel good to see any increase over time. I know that sounds a lilttle silly. I am totally serious.

    And I am SO happy things are going well for you! Congrats again!

    My betas with my 1st mc nearly doubled every time (ex: 400-796) and I still mc. My 2nd mc I was about 50% each time and mc'ed so it is all relative. I will still get mine done next time and pray for doubling.
